I would've said vacuum problem because mine does the same thing when the line next to the power valve comes off, but since your changing the injectors affected it, it's tough to say...

fix your exhaust leak (probably not the problem, but it does hurt mileage and the exhaust valves), anf test the other injectors, they do tend to go out in a short period of one another

You may want to clean the TB, change oil/filter, air filter, and maybe tranny fluid too.

check mass flow sensor, it worked for my rough idle and stalling
